Subject: RE: BS: 2012 Presidential Election
I am thinking about how some of the prominent Republicans like to tout their CEO experience, and how they "made money."

Nevermind that his health care plan was somewhat the blueprint for Obama's, does anyone know how Romney "made" his money? Well, his investment company bought companies, stripped them of tens or hundreds of employees, and then sold off the scraps.

And I wonder how Herman Cain treats his employees. I would not guess that he pays them above-average wages or gives them "liberal" employee benefits packages. Oh, and he thinks that the founding documents of this country are too long--he says legislation should not be more than three pages.

Not that Obama has any terrific record to run on. His biggest hope is that he can point to "the other side" and say, "Look at how bad it could be."
